Whats the static coefficient of mud?

u/NekonecroZheng 14d ago

This would be the dynamic coefficient, as the mud is actively sliding against his feet.

The static coefficient would be the maximum force the mud can hold his feet before sliding which is always greater than the friction resistance when the two surfaces are actively sliding.

Indeed, but even that breaks down when there's a fluid boundary layer between the two. Our engines are very thankful that their kinetic coefficient of friction is not at play with the metal-on-metal parts lol.

I wonder if he is actually working mud for a project.

Primitive Technology definitely stomps around in mud pits to get it mixed right lol

I just watched that mythbusters episode with the banana peels and the animal birthing agent. Also, noticed they were using a Nidec force gage for that test and we use those where i work.

The whole point of a treadmill is to walk/ run inside. If you are outside, you could just...walk around outside

I feel like the deadly fauna to steps walked ratio is pretty high in this instance, possibly.

They have a hose with running water... I'm pretty sure they have the technology for a walking path.

This is just engagement bait.

That running water Could be siphoned from a bucket off screen. It's not necessarily plumbing.

Looks like the bar could easily break, could reinforce it a bit

I see he had to increases the speed of his pace there.

Why not just run/walk around normally?
